ROTI PANGGANG | TOASTED SANDWICH

This is a simple sandwich with a little twist. When I was a kid, this was my favourite snack for the day. This morning, I decide to make one for my breakfast, perfect with my morning cappuccino!

Ingredients

2 slices of bread

Butter and peanut butter

Chocolate sprinkles / hagelslag

1 slice of cheddar cheese

Condensed milk

Method

Make a simple sandwich with the peanut butter, chocolate sprinkles and cheddar cheese.

Toast in a teflon pan for for 3 - 4 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Serve with a bit of condensed milk on top.

Notes

I use brown bread here, but normally in Jakarta I would use white bread because it's more common there.

Add more taste by adding some jam into the sandwich! start with peanut butter, jelly, chocolate sprinkles and then cheese!

This combination is used a lot for sweet dishes in Indonesia. For example, if you order super special sweet martabak, you'll get the filling with ground nuts, chocolate sprinkles, grated cheese, and condensed milk. On a pancake/crepe stalls, the famous combination is chocolate, cheese, banana and condensed milk.

I also make this sandwich untoasted and bring them to school for snack, some of my friends find it weird that I mix cheese and chocolate. But the cheese in Indonesia is not as strong as some of Nederlandse kaas. I would not use a block of jong/oud belegen cheese to make as a sweet dish.. Maybe pair it with red wine :)
